Siri To Get Smarter With iOS 18.4, Making AirPods Even More Useful

Apple’s AirPods have seen significant updates this year, with AirPods 4 and key software upgrades enhancing the overall experience.

One of the standout features, Siri Interactions, is set to have its most significant impact with the upcoming iOS 18.4 release.

Siri Interactions: A Game-Changer for Hands-Free Use

Introduced alongside iOS 18 and 18.1, Siri Interactions allow users to respond to Siri with a simple nod or shake of the head.

This feature, available on AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4, is especially useful when on the go or in noisy environments, reducing the need for voice commands.

It’s already a favorite for many, including those who use Siri for tasks like interacting with ChatGPT.

The iOS 18.4 Upgrade: Siri Gets Smarter

The upcoming iOS 18.4 update promises to make Siri even more intelligent and versatile. Some of the key improvements include:

• Expanded app actions: Siri will be able to perform a wider range of actions within apps.
• Personal context awareness: Siri will respond based on personal data, such as calendar events, texts, and podcasts.
• Onscreen awareness: Siri will be able to take action based on what’s currently displayed on your screen.

These updates aim to make Siri a more capable assistant, moving closer to the “Her”-like future many have envisioned.

As Siri becomes more intelligent, Siri Interactions will play a crucial role in how users engage with their devices, especially with AirPods.
